Vice Chancellor of Ignatius Ajuru University of Education (IAUE), Professor Okechuku Onuchuku, has extended heartfelt congratulations to Hon. Chinyere Igwe on his recent appointment as the Pro-Chancellor and Chairman of the Governing Board of the university.
In an official message made available to the press, Prof. Onuchuku described the appointment as “well-deserved and divinely ordained,” commending the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister and the Rivers State Government for the choice, which he said reflects both vision and commitment to academic excellence.
“I wish to heartily congratulate my worthy and dependable brother, Hon. Chinyere Igwe, on his well-merited appointment as the Pro-Chancellor and Chairman, Governing Board of our own Ignatius Ajuru University of Education. I am overjoyed and deeply thankful to the Almighty God and the Honourable Minister of the FCT for this laudable decision,” Prof. Onuchuku stated.
The Vice Chancellor noted that Igwe’s appointment comes at a time when the university is undergoing significant transformation, and expressed confidence that his leadership will further strengthen the institution’s growth, governance, and strategic direction.
Onuchuku also referenced the difficult times Igwe had endured earlier in the year, including an unjust detention, emphasizing that “his trials have only amplified the value of this triumph.”
“That your awful detention didn’t go in vain. Your resilience and courage continue to inspire us. This appointment is not only a personal victory but a win for all of us who believe in justice, service, and the brighter future of our university,” the Vice Chancellor added.
Under the Economics guru’s administration, IAUE has witnessed remarkable progress in academic quality, infrastructural development, and stakeholder engagement.
The appointment of Igwe, a seasoned public servant and committed education advocate, is seen by many as a timely boost to the institution’s ongoing advancement.
